Ringworm Infestation in Animal

Affected Animal	Cattle
Affected Animal (Scientific Name)	1. Clematis triloba
Affected Animal (Taxonomy)	1. Ranunculaceae
Affected Animal (Vernacular)	1. Morvel
Category	Veterinary Care
Disease
Disease Attak Stage	The infection of hair and skin keratin with the dermatophytes Trichophyton verrucosum (95% of cases), and less commonly Tricophyton mentagrophytes, cause lesions commonly referred to as ringworm. Trichophyton verrucosum is responsible for more than 90% of the cases.http://www.msd-animal-health.ie/diseases/cattle/ringworm/introduction.aspx (8/4/2020)
Disease Common Name
Disease Group	Fungal infection
Disease Distribution	The spores of ringworm fungi survive many months and in some cases years in the farm environment and may be transmitted either by fomites (brushes, gates, feed carts…) or by asymptomatic carriers to susceptible hosts. There is an increased risk of outbreaks during building work, with a much higher number of spores being released into the air.

Disease Symptoms / Clinical Signs	Not Applicable
Disease Description	Infection of the skin and hair of cattle is most frequently due to Trichophyton verrucosum, a spore forming fungi. Spores are shed from the lesion by broken hairs or scabs from the lesion. The spores remain alive for years in a dry environment; and because they do, halters, grooming equipment, or even a barn can remain infective for years. https://www.extension.purdue.edu/extmedia/VY/VY-56.html
